Straight through Yeah This ain't no letter maybe this is all a message Years later we meet then we all tryna discuss it And talking bout was going on all around the block Or maybe meet your son cuz he asking for his pops Or talk about the days the cops took you away Let you know your girl and son shit feeling all the pain And ever since you left man your fam ain't been the same Growing with no father figure yeah messing up his brain Shit or maybe thinking how did he go missing Thinking to himself why his mom do all the listen Gotta explain that he really got a father Going to school man asking yeah should he bother Getting outta line nobody put him back in order Only way to see his pops man is going through some folders Do what you gotta do you put it on the line And show him that you here And give him a clear sign, look At this point man getting into high school No father around shit to teach him all the street rules Having classmates always calling him the same fool Nobody advising him on what cards should he pull Or maybe the times when he got into a scuffle Still thinking only him could save him from the trouble Or looking back again no father in the past Then look into the future how could he ever last Now his mom doing the best that she can But couldn't do the things on what it takes to be a man And some things dawg a woman can't understand Now he has to grow up and start making his own plans damn Now I know this was all in you mind Do what you gotta do man you put it on the line Show him that you here and please give him a sign So he can stop crying Dear Anthonee Alone no more I don't wanna be alone No more, alone no more Alone no more I don't wanna be alone No more, alone no more
